I've just been asked whether it's possible to suppress completion messages on batch jobs that end normally.

To my great surprise, I found that one could use MSGQ(*NONE) on the SBMJOB command.

But that suppresses *all* messages. If the job hangs, with a QSYSOPR message, nothing gets back to the user who submitted the job, to indicate that it's waiting on a QSYSOPR message.

Is there something a bit less drastic? That would only suppress normal completion?
